Blair’s Bridal Session

Sunday, October 5th, 2008

Blair is one of those brides that came to us with a really unique request. We’re listening….let us have it. She and her fiance, Jon, both have degrees in turf management. Yes, there is such a thing. She specialized in turf for baseball fields and golf courses. Talk about a specific degree!

She really wanted to see if we could get permission to shoot part of her session at City Stadium in town. The Lynchburg Hillcats, Single A affiliate for the Pittsburgh Pirates play here.

We finally got the okay and had the whole place to ourselves. How cool is that?! It was really fun to go some place totally unique to Blair. The second part of our session was held on her family’s tobacco farm, which was the location of her wedding yesterday. Unbelievable amounts of acreage set against a large pond. BEAUTIFUL!!!

Blair, you were an awesome bride yesterday, we can’t wait to get to your wedding photos…for now, here are your long awaited bridal portraits. Thank you for being a bride that let’s us have some creative freedom to shoot outside the box.

Rhae’s mountainside bridal shoot

Thursday, August 28th, 2008

It is not everyday you show up to a location that greets you with such “natural” decor.

Being from Montana, Rhae wanted to say her “I do’s” where she felt most comfortable. Enter The House Mountain Inn. It’s such a beautiful lodge up in the mountains of Lexington, Va. We’ll show you more of the grounds when we post images from her wedding in a few days.

But until then, check out her bridal shots. It’s so exciting being able to show these off. We have been sitting on these for months, waiting for her wedding day to pass. Enjoy!

I have never seen so many butterflies in one spot in my life. They were everywhere.

Rhae and her now husband Scott like to fish, so Rhae brought along her pole to get some images of her fishing in her dress. These are the kinds of things that bring personality to your session. We always love when people bring their own unique style to the shoot.
